Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

One time Bhattar while having his food asked Nanjeeyar
to recite Azhvar's pasurams. Nanjeeyar was then 
reciting the Kangulum Pagalum pasurams. When he 
recited the line "en thirumagal sEr mArvanE ennum 
ennudai AviyE ennum", Bhattar cried out "Ranga" and 
fainted.

Until that day this phrase had been broken up as "en 
thirumagaL sEr mArvanE ennum" and "ennudai AviyE 
ennum" - that is, the mother is repeating the two 
phrases said by Parankusa Nayaki calling out to the
Lord as "Oh my Lord! with Sri Mahalakshmi in Your 
chest" and "Oh my soul!". However, as Nanjeeyar had
recited them closely together, Bhattar heard it as 
Parankusa Nayaki saying "Oh soul of mine which calls
out, oh my Lord with Sri Mahalakshmi in Your chest".

It is said that Bhattar was in such a trance at this
time that Najeeyar became greatly concerned that the
time had come for Bhattar to leave for His abode.
